Wednesday 19th July 2023 Race Report

by Penny Abbott

Teatime Tankard 6

Perfect sailing weather. 11 boats took to the water, which is more than Sundays in 2023!. This included 3 juniors racing in club toppers (and the SWLT Pico?).  Ethan in his Topper sailed really well to come 2nd. Out for the first time Milo (Topper) and Joseph (Pico?) didn’t finish. But I had better look up the PN for the Pico for next time! New members Rick & Wendy were out on the water again. Rick crewing for Roger (Bosun) and Wendy out in her Laser 4.7. Colin & Louise took out their Bosun. Geoff, whilst OODing, managed to get out in his Solo. Ian, with his sister Kate crewing, in his Enterprise were ahead at one point but had forgotten to take note of the course! Linda and Robin were both disqualified – maybe they hadn’t taken note of the course either!
